Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary function of the Cisco Nexus 2248TP-1GE in a data center architecture? +
The Cisco Nexus 2248TP-1GE acts as a high-density 1 Gigabit Ethernet fabric extender. It is designed to extend the data center fabric by connecting servers or end devices to a parent Nexus switch, effectively simplifying data center management by offloading complex switching tasks to the upstream parent device while maintaining high performance.
Does the N2K-C2248TP-1GE support connection to different parent Nexus switch models? +
Yes, this fabric extender is designed for flexible deployment across the Cisco Nexus portfolio. You can connect it to various parent switches, such as the Nexus 5000 or 7000 series. Compatibility depends on your current Cisco NX-OS version and the specific architecture of your fabric, ensuring seamless integration into your existing infrastructure.
How many ports are available on the Nexus 2248TP-1GE for server connectivity? +
The N2K-C2248TP-1GE provides 48 fixed 100/1000 Mbps Ethernet host ports. These ports allow for high-density server connectivity, enabling you to scale your rack-level networking efficiently. The design focuses on reducing cabling complexity by utilizing fabric extender technology, which consolidates management through the parent switch.
What are the uplink specifications for the Cisco Nexus 2248TP-1GE? +
The unit features four 10 Gigabit Ethernet fabric interfaces. These SFP+ uplinks provide the necessary bandwidth to connect the fabric extender to your parent Nexus switch, ensuring high-speed data transmission and low latency. This configuration is ideal for environments requiring high-performance connectivity between server racks and the core network fabric.
Is the N2K-C2248TP-1GE suitable for top-of-rack deployment scenarios? +
Absolutely, this device is specifically engineered for top-of-rack (ToR) deployments. Its compact form factor and high-density port count make it an excellent choice for modern data centers looking to minimize cable runs from servers to the end-of-row switches. It allows for a structured, scalable approach to managing server connectivity in dense rack environments.
How is the Nexus 2248TP-1GE managed within a network fabric? +
Management of this device is centralized through the parent Nexus switch. Because the fabric extender operates as a remote line card, all configuration, monitoring, and software updates are handled at the parent level. This approach significantly reduces operational overhead and simplifies network management across your entire data center footprint.
What type of power and cooling configuration does this fabric extender utilize? +
The N2K-C2248TP-1GE utilizes a front-to-back or back-to-front airflow design depending on the specific power supply modules installed, aligning with standard hot-aisle/cold-aisle data center layouts. It features redundant, hot-swappable power supplies and fan trays to ensure high availability and reliability, maintaining consistent performance even under heavy network traffic loads.
Can the N2K-C2248TP-1GE handle mixed-speed traffic environments? +
The host ports support both 100 Mbps and 1000 Mbps speeds, allowing for flexibility if you are managing a mix of legacy and modern server equipment. By supporting these speeds, the device enables a smooth transition path for your infrastructure, ensuring that you can accommodate diverse server requirements within the same physical rack.
